Do SSD's lose performance as they age?
My oldest SATA SSD (which is also my boot drive) is not showing the same
kind of performance it did when it was new. I only discovered it recently after buying a new secondary SATA SSD, which I benchmarked, and then as a comparison I compared it against the older one. The new one is showing a peak sequential read of 456 MB/s and a write of 450 MB/s. But the older one is only showing 210 MB/s & 160 MB/s respectively; it used to show performance more comparable to the newer drive when it was new. It sounds like this drive has downgraded itself from SATA-3 down to SATA-2. Is there a way to see if a drive is running in either SATA-2 or -3 mode? All of my SATA ports are supposed to be SATA-3 capable. Yousuf Khan |
